The Just Cause Ordinance also states that "[a] landlord shall not endeavor to recover possession of a rental unit unless" a permitted ground for eviction is set forth "in the notice and that ground is the landlord's dominant motive for recovering possession and the landlord acts in good faith in seeking to recover possession." (Oakland Mun. Code, § 8.22.360, subd. (B)(2).) Additionally, a notice terminating a tenancy must include "[a] statement that advice regarding the notice terminating tenancy is available from the Rent Board." (Oakland Mun. Code, § 8.22.360, subd. (B)(6)(b).) Finally, "[w]henever a landlord ... wrongfully endeavors to recover possession or recovers possession of a rental unit in violation of Subsection 6(A) [8.22.360 A], the tenant ... may institute a civil proceeding for ... money damages of not less than three times actual damages (including damages for mental or emotional distress), and whatever other relief the court deems appropriate. ..." (Oakland Mun. Code, § 8.22.370, subd. (A)(2), brackets in original.)
